The Stonewall DFL Caucus is not obligated to endorse anyone. Part of the agreement in being an officially recognized caucus of the DFL we do agree not to endorse anyone running against a DFL endorsed candidate but we are not obligated to automatically support any DFL endorsed candidate.

There is currently an active motion to endorse Olin Moore and a clear majority of the board has expressed support for the motion. This endorsement will become official very shortly (due to the holidays we have been unable to have a meeting before this).

Personally, I have known Olin Moore for several years and in that time he has been not only a strong supporter of GLBT rights but has been an active participant in the GLBT rights movement. I am confident that we can trust him, by his own instinct as well as his dedication to communication with the broader community, to always be a solid and progressive vote for the whole community, aa well as the GLBT community.

	No, Stonewall DFL has no obligation to support a DFL endorsed
candidate.
